Reading the Bible

 

I have been a part of a church for as long as I can remember.  I was raised in the Lutheran Church, Missouri Synod.  My mom was a Sunday School teacher.  Church, youth group, the study of the catechism were a part of my life through high school.  I was an 'intermittent' Lutheran during my time in the military.  Marriage brought me back to church full time, this time to the Catholic church.  And there I have remained.

During the past 59 years, I am sure I have heard virtually all parts of the bible and studied most of them.  However, I have never read the bible cover to cover.  I downloaded "The One Year Bible, New Living Translation"  from Tyndale to my Kindle and began the process in March of last year.  By May I had given up the effort.  I have taken it up again.  For those wishing to take up their own efforts, a version is available online at not cost.  The link is provided under my "Links" section to the left of the site.
